"An important and timely book that engages a uniquely criticalperspective on the liberal ideology of social cohesion from a labourperspective. I can think of no other source with the depth of analysisand range of case studies." - Colin Mooers, editor of The New Imperialists:Ideologies of Empire As working people's lives become increasingly fragmented,competitive, and unequal, debates about social cohesion capture theunease of contemporary society over growing economic restructuring.Solidarity First examines the concept and practice of socialcohesion in terms of its impact on, and significance for, workers inCanada. It will be of interest to students and scholars in the fieldsof public policy, political science, sociology, and labour studies.
